That’s a professional. We depend on them.

This job would be the death of me. My Whole camera roll would be photos of the last door I checked to make sure I’d done it correctly.

Japan. The technique he is using is called Shisa Kanko (pointing and calling), a highly effective method used to reduce human error.

The proud moments of a mother and father who see that the pilot of the plane they boarded is their son.

OCD looks like it should be a job requirement here.

This father didn't know his daughter was the pilot for his flight. Beautiful moment 🥰

The ground crew guy is doing what's called “shisa kanko (指差喚呼)”, or pointing and calling. It's a safety practice started by Japanese Railways that has proven to be a fantastic way of catching errors and discrepancies and has saved countless lives.

His mother in law is in there, he wants to make sure she can't escape/

Don’t hire this guy.

Hate to say it after flying over 2 Million miles on commercial airlines I have never seen this. The person I see closing the door is usually an overweight gate agent who does none of that. The man has to be an ex navy or af flight line worker.

Gotta love those Japanese, they are sticklers for details.

I couldn’t imagine not doing it if it was me. If something happened to the aircraft and it was caused by something I’d missed in my job/procedures, I couldn’t live with myself. Do the job properly first time, or don’t do it at all is how I’ve lived my life.

This man is the definition of "I just work here"

The procedure the worker is following is a Japanese methodology for those kinds of safety double-checks. That's not an American worker.

Reminded me back in the days when I was Plane Captain in the Navy or Crew Chief equivalent in the AF, we used to do this when closing aircraft panels. Because sometimes the eyes miss things. But if you also use your sense of touch through your hands, you’ll feel if a latch is not properly secured or a fastener that secures a panel is loose, or accidentally missed during tightening procedures.

A thousand like him. Folks who do the job, invisibly, and keep up alive. 👊

He is required to read, speak, and understand the English language per FAA regulation.

How many of you know there is a small door over vertical stabiliser?

I still point at what I’m inspecting. Don’t know where I picked it up because it was so long ago

Here’s whats happening This demonstrates "Shisa Kanko" (pointing and calling), a Japanese safety technique originating in 1910s railways that reduces human error by up to 85% according to peer-reviewed studies on cognitive psychology, now adopted in aviation for tasks like pre-flight inspections.

The definition of standing on business 😭 😭

Asia likely Japan. The passengers take their own trash off too (as opposed to say a deep south rocket MIA/GIG where you can't see the floor because of the garbage at arrival).

whatever your job is do it with diligence and professionalism...people depend on it. Attn auto mechanics!

I can tell from the body language, that fine fellow is more than likely Japanese. They are perfectionists and perfectly suited for that extremely important task! Well done good sir for double, triple and quadruple checking that door was completely, totally and utterly sealed. ❤️👍🏻

You only get one chance to do it right😏

This is the kind of person we should learn from…extra careful and checks, checks, and rechecks…awesome!

Our entire civilization is held together by men doing millions of seemingly routine and simple jobs with this kind of care.

That’s good. I expect professionalism from everyone on my aircraft but also from my flight liners, ramp agents and LAMEs. Safety is built from the ground up, and every chain has a weakest link, but I still expect it to be relatively strong

I want an African from Uganda who has been in the US for 3 days to have this job

That’s a professional other people depend upon

We’re you somehow expecting non-professionals to look after critical airline safety 🤔

It's always a beautiful thing when someone takes their job seriously and does it to the best of their ability.

Whom hasn’t lived with a Paratrooper that’s been a Jumpmaster…. Walking through doorways in our house…. Just being a wife of one, getting my equipment checks-lol 10 minutes

Be like this guy today

Yes a professional man
